yougra.ph is a digital tool which uses text messaging and artificial intelligence systems to visualise disruptions in mental and emotional wellbeing.

Mental health issues are known to affect one third of the UK population yet they still remain intangible and often misunderstood. Developed in conjunction with support professionals, yougra.ph provides a cathartic outlet for thoughts and feelings through an interactive text messaging service. An accompanying web application visualises interpreted emotional intensity levels for use within existing therapy frameworks and self-understanding or for illustrating mental/emotional states to close friends and family.
